In late July 2026, Dairy Queen customers discovered a way to recreate the chain’s 1950s‑style Jack and Jill sundae by adding marshmallow topping to a hot‑fudge sundae, a DIY “menu hack” that revived a nostalgic treat at a modest price.

A week later, in early August, the company launched a limited‑time $7 Meal Deal at Grill & Chill locations. The promotion bundled a main (cheeseburger or chicken strips), fries, a drink and a sundae, with an optional Blizzard upgrade, extending the focus on value‑priced menu items beyond the earlier sundae‑specific hack.
